Wolves winger Matt Jarvis says his England call-up was a huge boost to him and would relish the opportunity to play for his country again.

Jarvis was called up by the Three Lions for the Euro 2012 qualifier with Wales at the Millennium Stadium in March and the friendly against Ghana at Wembley.

Having failed to make the squad for the Wales game, Jarvis was handed his chance against Ghana when he came on as a 70th minute substitute for Jack Wilshere.

Jarvis says his call-up has only increased his hunger for further international recognition.

He told the Daily Mail: “The England call-up was a huge boost for me and to actually play part of the game was massive.

“It was a lifelong ambition but it has whetted my appetite for more of the same and hopefully I can get back in there during the coming season.”

Wolves fly out to Kildare in Ireland on Monday to begin their pre-season for a campaign which Jarvis hopes to be even better than the last.

“Everyone strives to do better than the season before and that counts for me as well,” he added.

“I think I can still improve. I want to play as many games as possible, score more goals and hopefully that will help me to get back in the England squad.”
